Nike+ FuelBand SE

Nike

Every minute of the day brings us a moment closer to our certain death. Delightful thought, isn’t it? Well, most people wear a constant, unheeded reminder of this on their wrist every day. So why not swap that timepiece with something a little more encouraging? The Nike+ FuelBand SE, the second iteration of the company’s motion tracking bracelet is, as company reps call it, a scoreboard for your wrist. Move a lot, and you rack up Fuel Points, a currency of movement that earns you nothing but better days ahead. Sturdy and water resistant, it’s comfortable to wear all day long — which is kind of the point — whether you’re active or not. The $150 device also has a pedometer, burnt calorie counter, a watch (brilliant feature!). It syncs via Bluetooth to an accompanying iOS and Android app, where your Fuel Points are tallied, accomplishments realized, and social accounts updated. Recent improvements also integrated Nike+ Groups, a way for FuelBand users to keep each other motivated, as if the integrated watch wasn’t enough already.

I've bought like 5 gifts from www.SurpriseMeGifts.com and all the gifts we've gotten are really cool. It's just $10 and you get random Surprise gifts. They've sent headphones, iphone case, make up and a Video Game. On their Facebook page you can see some of the gifts they've sent. https://www.facebook.com/GiftMeSurprise

These are quite interesting bits of tech and I'm sure there will be many more lists like this in the running up to Xmas. For people who keep keep manuals and receipts in the kitchen drawer, I'd like to add share Unioncy's web app. It automatically builds your product catalog and is really helpful for tracking warranties and keeping all product information and documentation in the cloud. This way you can go paperless and don't have to worry about lost receipts or manuals again.
